(www.HandStorm.com), today announced the launch of StaySafe, the first  application to deliver sex offender registry information to mobile devices in real-time.  With Family Watchdog’s extensive database of registered sex offenders, consumers now have quick access to information about offenders in their area and across the United States.
Available today at the Apple iTunes Store for $14.99, StaySafe is an easy-to-use application that utilizes the iPhone’s location awareness to deliver location-based sex offender information. StaySafe works with GPS-enabled iPhones, as well as first generation iPhones and iPod Touches.  Additionally, StaySafe is available for the T-Mobile G1 and other Android devices, and can be purchased in the Android Marketplace. 
“We’re proud to work with HandStorm to offer StaySafe, the first mobile application to address this type of issue, and to take the next step in our fight to provide the most up-to-date, detailed information to protect consumers from registered sex offenders in their area and nationally,” said Steve Roddel, founder of Family Watchdog.  “It was clear from the beginning that HandStorm shared our commitment and helped accelerate the delivery of consumers’ mobile access to the latest information that increases the safety of our families and loved ones. With StaySafe, consumers can now feel informed, empowered and safe in any location.”
Designed by HandStorm, Inc., the app is easy to navigate and allows consumers to search for offenders in four ways: automatically based on the phone’s location, by zip code or city name, by offender name, and by physical characteristics including height, weight and hair color.  StaySafe also analyzes the threat level at the phone’s location, and delivers a concise summary so that users can quickly gauge their personal risk.  Users can control the search area, allowing StaySafe to be effective in cities, suburbs, and rural areas.
“HandStorm recognized consumers’ need to access Family Watchdog’s important Web site information at anytime, anywhere and the solution was a powerful and useful mobile application,” said Dwayne Williams, president of HandStorm, Inc.  “Increasingly, organizations and companies are looking to mobilize their product or service, and in the case of Family Watchdog and their unique mission of providing awareness and enabling safety, there is a natural and critical need for consumers to easily access a large amount of data from around the nation.  StaySafe responds to that need by packaging the collected data and mobile accessibility into an inexpensive useful application.”
